经典现代诗中英文翻译赏析

1、再别康桥

《再别康桥》原是现代诗人徐志摩脍炙人口的诗篇，是新月派诗歌的代表作品。全诗描述了一幅幅流动的画面，构成了一处处美妙的意境，细致入微地将诗人对康桥的爱恋，对往昔生活的憧憬，对眼前的无可奈何的离愁表现得真挚、隽永。后被后人改编成同名歌曲、对联翻唱。

再别康桥

轻轻的我走了，

正如我轻轻的来；

我轻轻的招手，

作别西天的云彩。

那河畔的金柳，

是夕阳中的新娘；

波光里的艳影，

在我的心头荡漾。

软泥上的青荇，

油油的在水底招摇；

在康河的柔波里，

我甘心做一条水草。

那榆阴下的一潭，

不是清泉，是天上虹；

揉碎在浮藻间，

沉淀着彩虹似的梦。

寻梦？撑一支长篙，

向青草更青处漫溯；

满载一船星辉，

在星辉斑斓里放歌。

但我不能放歌，

悄悄是别离的笙箫；

夏虫也为我沉默，

沉默是今晚的康桥！

悄悄的我走了，

正如我悄悄的来；

我挥一挥衣袖，

不带走一片云彩。

英语译文

译诗1：

Very quietly I take my leave

As quietly as I came here;

Quietly I wave good-bye

To the rosy clouds in the western sky.

The golden willows by the riverside

Are young brides in the tting sun;

Their reflections on the shimmering waves

Always linger in the depth of my heart.

The floating heart growing the sludge

Sways leisurely under the water;

In the gentle waves of Cambridge

I would be a water plant!

That pool under the shade of elm trees

Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky;

Shattered to pieces among the duck weeds

Is the diment of a rainbow-like dream?

To ek a dream?

Just to pole a boat upstream

To where the green grass is more verdant

Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight

And sing aloud in the splendor of starlight.

But I can’t sing aloud

Quietness is my farewell music;

Even summer incts heap silence for me

Silent is Cambridge tonight!

Very quietly I left

As quietly as I came here;

Gently I flick my sleeves

Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away

译诗2：

Goodbye Again, Cambridge!

I leave softly, gently,

Exactly as I came.

I wave to the western sky,

Telling it goodbye softly, gently.

The golden willow at the river edge

Is the tting sun‘s bride.

Her quivering reflection

Stays fixed in my mind.

Green grass on the bank

Dances on a watery floor

In bright reflection.

I wish mylf a bit of waterweed

Vibrating to the ripple.

Of the River Cam.

That creek in the shade of the great elms

Is not a creek but a shattered rainbow,

Printed on the water

And inlaid with duckweed,

It is my lost dream.

Hunting a dream?

Wielding a long punting pole

I get my boat into green water,

Into still greener grass.

In a flood of starlight

On a river of silver and diamond

I sing to my heart‘s content.

But now, no, I cannot sing

With farewell in my heart.

Farewells must be quiet, mute,

Even the summer incts are silent,

Knowing I am leaving.

The Cambridge night is soundless.

I leave quietly

As I came quietly.

I am leaving

Without taking so much

As a piece of cloud.

But with a quick jerk of my sleave

I wave goodbye.

2、乡愁

乡愁

作者：余光中 （poet）

原文：

（中文）

惆怅的乡愁(7张)

小时候 ，

乡愁是一枚小小的邮票 ，

我在这头 ，

母亲在那头。

长大后 ，

乡愁是一张窄窄的船票 ，

我在这头 ，

新娘在那头 。

后来啊，

乡愁是一方矮矮的坟墓 ，

我在外头，

母亲在里头 。

而现在 ，

乡愁是一湾浅浅的海峡 ，

我在这头 ，

大陆在那头。

（英文）

When I was young,

my homesickness was a small stamp,

I was here,

my mother was there.

After growing up,

my homesickness was a narrow ticket,

I was here,

my bride was there.

Later,

my homesickness was a little tomb,

I was outside,

my mother was inside.

And now,

my homesickness is a shallow strait,

I am here,

the mainland is there.

I will be a happy man

Grooming, chopping

and traveling all over the world

Give a warm name for every river and every mountain

Strangers, I will also wish you happy

May you have a brilliant future

May your lovers eventually become spou

May you enjoy happiness in this earthly world

4、致橡树

《致橡树》是朦胧诗潮的代表作之一，创作于1977年3月，是文革后最早的爱情诗。作为新时期文学的发轫之作，《致橡树》在文学史上的地位是不言自明的。

诗歌：致橡树

作者：舒婷 创作于1977年3月27日

致橡树

我如果爱你——

绝不像攀援的凌霄花，

借你的高枝炫耀自己；

我如果爱你——

绝不学痴情的鸟儿，

为绿荫重复单调的歌曲；

也不止像泉源，

常年送来清凉的慰藉；

也不止像险峰，

增加你的高度，衬托你的威仪。

甚至日光。

甚至春雨。

不，这些都还不够！

我必须是你近旁的一株木棉，

做为树的形象和你站在一起。

根，紧握在地下；

叶，相触在云里。

每一阵风过，

我们都相互致意，

但没有人，

听懂我们的言语。

你有你的铜枝铁干，

像刀、像剑，也像戟；

我有我红硕的花朵，

像沉重的叹息，

又像英勇的火炬。

我们分担寒潮、风雷、霹雳；

我们共享雾霭、流岚、虹霓。

仿佛永远分离，

却又终身相依。

这才是伟大的爱情，

坚贞就在这里：

爱——不仅爱你伟岸的身躯，

也爱你坚持的位置，足下的土地。

To The Oak

Shu ting

If I love you

I won't wind upon you like a trumpet creeper

upvalue mylf by your height

If I love you

I will never follow a spoony bird

repeating the monotone song for the green shade

not only like a springhead

brings you clean coolness whole year long

not only like a steep peak

enhances your height, ts off your straightness

even sunshine

and spring rain

No, all the are not enough!

I must be a ceiba by your side

as a tree standing together with you

our roots melt underneath

our leaves merge in clouds

when wind breezes

we greet each other

but no one

can understand our peculiar words

you have your strong stem and branches

like knives and swords

and like halberds

I have my red ample flowers

like heavy sighs

and heroic torches as well

we partake cold tide,thunder storm,firebolt

together we share brume,flowing mist,rainbow

as if we parate all the time

actually we forever rely on each other

this is great love

loyalty lives here

Love

not only your giant body

but also the position you stand，the earth under your feet

英文版二

To the Oak

If I loved thee

I would absolutely not like that trumpet creeper

Winds upon but keeps flaunting on your lofty branches

If I loved thee

I would never follow that birdie

Deeply infatuated but repeats monotonous music for this green shade

I wouldn't

Just like that fountainhead

Comforts you perennial coolness

I wouldn't

Just like that cliff

Ris your tallness and ts off your presitige figure

Or even that sunshine

That spring rain

No, not enough from all tho above

I should be a kapok

----As a tree I stand there

Clo to you

Beneath the ground

We tightly crisscross us with our roots

In the clouds we subtly touch each other by leaves

Every blow of wind

Delievers our greetings

No one but us understand tho murmurs

You posss

Copper-branches, iron-stem

Falshion-alike, sword-alike, and even hastate

I have

Huge vermilion flowers

emly as pensive sigh but also valiant torch-alike

Polar outbreak, tempest, thunderbolt we burden with

Mist, hillside-haze, rainbows we share

Apparently we stay apart forever but stay together all life-long time

Only this

Can be appraid as GREAT LOVE

Loyalty lies here

Love---

Not only for your giant sturdy stature

But also for that site you are sticking to

----Lands under your feet

5、雨巷

《雨巷》是戴望舒的成名作，约作于政治风云激荡的1927年夏天。《雨巷》中狭窄阴沉的雨巷，在雨巷中徘徊的独行者，以及那个像丁香一样结着愁怨的姑娘，都是象征性的意象。分别比喻了当时黑暗的社会，在革命中失败的人和朦胧的，时有时无的希望。这些意象又共同构成了一种象征性的意境，含蓄地暗示出作者既迷惘感伤又有期待的情怀，并给人一种朦胧而又幽深的美感。

雨巷

——戴望舒

撑着油纸伞，独自

彷徨在悠长、悠长

又寂寥的雨巷，

我希望逢着

一个丁香一样的

结着愁怨的姑娘。

她是有

丁香一样的颜色，

丁香一样的芬芳，

丁香一样的忧愁，

在雨中哀怨，

哀怨又彷徨；

她彷徨在这寂寥的雨巷，

撑着油纸伞

像我一样，

像我一样地

默默彳亍（ chì chù ）着

冷漠、凄清，又惆怅

她静默地走近

走近，又投出

太息一般的眼光

她飘过

像梦一般地，

像梦一般地凄婉迷茫。

像梦中飘过

一枝丁香的，

我身旁飘过这女郎；

她静默地远了，远了，

到了颓圮（pǐ）的篱墙，

走尽这雨巷。

在雨的哀曲里，

消了她的颜色，

散了她的芬芳

消散了，甚至她的

太息般的眼光，

丁香般的惆怅。

撑着油纸伞，独自

彷徨在悠长，悠长

又寂寥的雨巷，

我希望飘过

一个丁香一样地

结着愁怨的姑娘。

A Lane in the Rain

Dai Wangshu

Alone holding an oil-paper umbrella,

I wander along a long

Solitary lane in the rain,

Hoping to encounter

A girl like a bouquet of lilacs

Gnawed by anxiety and rentment.

A girl

The colour of lilacs,

The fragrance of lilacs,

With the worries of lilacs,

Feeling melancholy in the rain,

Plaintive and hesitating.

She wanders along the solitary lane in the rain,

Holding an oil-paper umbrella

Just as I do,

Just like me,

Walking slowly in silence,

Aloof, sad and melancholy.

Silently she comes clor,

Clor, giving me

A glance like a sigh;

Then she floats past

Like a dream,

Dreary and blank like a dream.

Like a lilac

Floating past in a dream,

the girl floats past me;

Silently she goes further and further,

To the crumbling wall,

Out of the lane in the rain.

In the mournful melody of the rain,

Her colour has faded,

Her fragrance has disappeared,

Vanished into the void;

Even her glance like a sigh,

Melancholy like lilacs.

Alone holding an oil-paper umbrella,

I wander along a long

Solitary lane in the rain,

Hoping to pass

A girl like a bouquet of lilacs

Gnawed by anxiety and rentment.

The Alley in the Rain

Holding an umbrella, I'm alone

Wandering about the long, long,

Lonely alley in the rain,

Hoping to encounter

A girl who bears her melancholy

Like a lilac flower.

She has

The color of a lilac,

The fragrance of a lilac,

And the melancholy of a lilac.

She looks sorrowful in the rain,

Sorrowful and depresd.

She paces the lonely alley,

Holding an umbrella,

Like me,

Just like me—

Walking quietly and slowly

In coldness, solitude and melancholy.

Quietly she comes clo,

Clo to me and casts

A glance, like a sigh.

She drifts away

Like a dream—

So dreary and deep.

Like a lilac flower drifting by

In a dream,

The girl pass by me;

Quietly she is walking away and away,

To a broken hedge,

To the end of the alley in the rain.

In the plaintive tune of the rain

Her color fades,

Her fragrance disappears,

So do her sighing glance

And lilac-like melancholy.

Holding an umbrella, I'm alone

Wandering about the long, long,

Lonely alley in the rain,

Hoping to e passing by

A girl who bears her melancholy

Like a lilac flower.

(唐正秋 译)

Rainy Alley

Dai Wangshu

Holding a light umbrella

I walk back and forth alone

In a silent, rainy alley,

A long, an endlessly long alley,

Hoping to meet

A girl as sweet, as blue

As the lilac bud that knits her brows.

As graceful as lilac,

As fragrant as lilac,

As sad as lilac:

Back and forth she walks,

Worried in the rain,

Sad in the rain.

Holding a light umbrella

Back and forth she walks, and walks,

In this silent, rainy alley,

As I pace and plod,

Silent, alone,

Wearing my solitude, my sadness and pain.

Quietly she walks clo by me,

Then clor, then clor,

Casting a glance

As if of a sign,

She floats on by me

Plaintive as a dream,

A hazy dream,

A sad dream.

As if what flies by me

Is a branch of lilac in a dream,

The girl flits by me

In silence, in a distance

More distant, more distant,

Floats to a ruined wattled wall

At the end of this rainy alley.

And her rolike color fades,

Her sweet, sweet fragrance fades,

To the sad tune of the rain.

Her glance disappears, her sign disappears,

Her lilac-like sadness.

Holding a light umbrella

I walk back and forth alone

In a silent, rainy alley,

A long, an endlessly long alley,

Hoping to meet

A girl as sweet, as blue

As the lilac bud that knits her brows.

(丁祖馨 译)

6、热爱生命

汪国真

我不去想是否能够成功

既然选择了远方

便只顾风雨兼程

我不去想能否赢得爱情

既然钟情于玫瑰

就勇敢地吐露真诚

我不去想身后会不会袭来寒风冷雨

既然目标是地平线

留给世界的只能是背影

我不去想未来是平坦还是泥泞

只要热爱生命

一切，都在意料之中

I care not whether I can succeed.

Since in choice of the distance,

I simply travel in wind and rain.

I care not whether I can win love.

Since in deep love with a ro,

I just unbosom mylf bravely.

I care not whether hit by wind and rain.

Since my goal is to reach the horizon,

Only my back is in face of the world.

I care not whether future is smooth or muddy,

If only I have passion for life,

Everything will go as expected.

7、回答

作者：北岛 1976年

卑鄙是卑鄙者的通行证，

高尚是高尚者的墓志铭。

看吧，在那镀金的天空中，

飘满了死者弯曲的倒影。

冰川纪过去了，

为什么到处都是冰凌?

好望角发现了，

为什么死海里千帆相竞?

我来到这个世界上，

只带着纸、绳索和身影，

为了在审判之前，

宣读那些被判决了的声音：

告诉你吧，世界，

我——不——相——信!

纵使你脚下有一千名挑战者，

那就把我算做第一千零一名。

我不相信天是蓝的，

我不相信雷的回声；

我不相信梦是假的，

我不相信死无报应。

如果海洋注定要决堤，

就让所有的苦水都注入我心中；

如果陆地注定要上升，

就让人类重新选择生存的峰顶。

新的转机和闪闪的星斗，

正在缀满没有遮拦的天空，

那是五千年的象形文字，

那是未来人们凝视的眼睛。

Answers

Cruelty is the ID pass of the cruel,

honesty the grave stone of the honest.

Look, in the sky plated gold,

crooked reflections of all the dead float around.

The glacial epoch is over,

so why is there ice everywhere?

Good Hope was rounded a long time ago,

so where are the thousands of boats racing on the Dead Sea?

I came into this world

with only blank pages, rope and my fingers;

therefore, before final judgements are given,

I need to speak in all the voices of the defendants.

Just let me say, world,

I--don't--believe!

If a thousand challengers are under your feet

count me as challenger one-thousand-and-one.

I don't believe the sky is always blue;

I don't believe it was thunder echoing;

I don't believe all dreaming is fal;

I don't believe the dead cannot bring judgement.

If the a is doomed someday to break its levees

my heart must flood with all the bitter waters.

If the land is destined to form the hills again,

let real human beings learn to choo the higher ground.

The latest, favorable turnings, the twinkling stars

studding the naked sky,

are pictographs five-thousand years old.

They are the eyes of the future staring at us now.
